Garden Visits

It looks very different at this time of year:

Actually, the gardens are no longer 'Lost'. An infringement of the trades description act? I've a good mind to write to my local MP :D I'll get my coat :runhills:

Hylands House over recent years has become synonymous with the V music festival and has even hosted the European scout jamboree in 2005 as a child I remember the house exploring the gardens. At the time the house was boarded up and in a terrible state of repair. During these visits I would be...

Myself and Newey had the great pleasure of going up the cairngorm a couple of years ago while up at Aviemore for Christmas and he made it to the top despite the snow and rapid weather change that day, saw the mountain garden area and all the wild life that it attracts and love the work that is...

Sounds like they are running a bit behind then,

Cheers, ziggy!*dim* - when we were there I entered a competition to take a 'flight' in that very same balloon! Didn't win though. :(

Strangely enough, I didn't!!!! I think the prices are similar to other Exotic GC's but I didn't see anything I wanted (needed). I fancied the Agave Medio-picta but at £50 or £80 I walked past them. I did buy a Yucca Recurvifolia 'Banana Split' at Tatton Park NT shop for a fiver. Vicky, as...

What a wonderful programme that was. Really enjoyed listening to the narration.

As you probably remember it is just down the road for me and I have been three times this year, a great place, not always full of colour but always something interesting to see.

Hi Ellis, welcome to Gardeners Corner.:DDo you think you could clarify what you mean by "gardening flower"? Are you thinking about all flowers, how to sow, grow and plant them in the garden.?? If so, never fear, as there are a great bunch of very helpful gardeners here who will be more...

We've been when my son was tiny (more than 5 years ago!) and we're heading back to Wales soon on holiday so definitely earmarking the gardens for another visit!

I'm sure thats not the case Jack, I did all the work myself so it didn't actually cost me much, just a few packets of seed and I found the water feature in a skip - that's what I told Mrs JWK anyway :o

HA.......Love it.......fingers crossed you win that lottery Clara. Remember........save me a room!!
